Our November 2022 harvest is a superb quality oil which has reached the finals of the Soil Assosiation 2023 organic foods awards! Hailing from our Mirabello Estate in Crete; the koroneiki olives are hand picked just as the olives are turning from green to black, and pressed the same day.
A deep golden colour, beautifully aromatic with fruity floral notes, creamy full texture, beautifully balanced bitterness and pepper.
The acidity is low, (0.4%), demonstrating the quality of the olive oil
This oil is high in polyphenols (>250mg/kg), which are natural anti-oxidants
A very versatile oil which can be used on salads, as a dressing, for drizzling, for dipping and for all kinds of savoury cooking. Contrary to many myths, good olive oil rich in antioxidants is perfect for frying in.

As for accolades - we feel there is no higher recommendation for our Cretan Liquid Gold Organic EVOO than the fact that it has been Nigella Lawson's luxury favourite olive oil since 2013! "This is my luxury fave - Liquid Gold Organic.." Twitter @Nigella_Lawson
Indeed, Nigella has rated it as one of her 5 kitchen essentials! It is also a favourite of masterchef winners Thomasina Miers, Irini Tzortzoglou and is a long-term favourite of many of our regular and loyal customers.
If buying one of the large 5 Litre tins, why not pair it with one of our gorgeous ceramic hand made olive oil decanters - each holds 500ml and has an ergonomic shape with grip surface.
